Abstract:

Today the renewable energy sector continues to be one of the most an attractive market for public and private investors. According to the Renewables global future report [1] world gets about 17–18% of its energy from renewables, including about 9% from “traditional biomass” and about 8% from “modern renewables.” In 2011, about 30 countries were getting 20% or more of their total energy from renewables, and some as high as 50%. Countries in this category include Austria, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, the Philippines, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Uganda, and

Abstract:

The world today is built on energy. Every process, whether industrial or civil, from the moment one awakes in the morning all throughout the day and into the late night, is fuelled by energy. There is an energy consumption going on twentyfour hours, every day of the year (IEA, 2017). The traditional energy mix (coal, gas, oil) has been used up to now with disrupting effects on our planet. In order to stay in the sustainable development concept, the demand for energy will be optimally met with renewable energies (RE), so to also keep the global temperatures under 2°C or even 1.5°C, if ambitious

However, the current global consensus is that energy-related carbon dioxide emissions would, at current rates, put the world onto a potentially catastrophic trajectory which could lead to global warming of 5 degree Celsius or more compared to pre-industrial times. There is a critical need for a low-carbon development or a move away from conventional fossil fuels energy sources. This study explores impacts of policies that South Africa developed in or

Some hotels have explored certain sustainable practices such as light-emitting diode lights, T5 fluorescent tubes, motion sensors, the key-card system, and water-cooled chillers. However, several studies have reported low RET adoption in the hotel sector globally. There are limited studies exploring RET adoption in the hotel context. In respo

Abstract:

Economies aim to expand over time, which always implies the need for increased energy availability in support of this growth. Governments can use their procurement of energy generation to further enhance the benefit to their economies via certain policy tools. One such tool is Local Content Requirements (LCR) where procurement of a good dictates that a certain value has to be sourced locally. The argument for this tool is that spend is localised and manufacturing, as well as job creation, can be stimulated due to industry establishing in the host economy.

Abstract:

La UE ha anat progressivament promovent la transició cap a un sistema elèctric descarbonitzat, competitiu i segur. Els tres objectius de liberalització, protecció mediambiental i seguretat de subministrament han sigut sovint considerats com mutualment excloents i no sempre complementaris. Per aquesta raó, la implementació de les polítiques d’energia i clima entre 2009 i 2020 haurien d’haver empès els estats membres a ser més cautelosos a l’hora de cedir competències a la UE i d’acordar objectius més ambiciosos en relació al foment de les energies renovables per 2030.

Abstract:

Kanndas S.A. de C.V. is a company operating in the renewable energy market in Puebla, Mexico, for which a communication strategy has been developed. The main challenges for the company are to be found, on one hand, within its own potential market, as there is a lack of knowledge about the photovoltaic technology as well as a restrained attitude towards mid- to long-term investments. On the other hand, Kanndas´ main competitor is the Mexican tariff system itself, which unsustainably subsidizes electricity tariffs as well as the lack of governmental promotion of renewable energy investments in g

Abstract:

A busca pelo Desenvolvimento Sustentável inclui estratégias como o maior uso de formas de energia renováveis, que tenham menores impactos no meio ambiente, que tragam benefícios sociais, como geração de empregos, desenvolvimento científico, por exemplo e que tragam benefícios econômicos, como o barateamento do acesso à energia e uma menor dependência ao petróleo, entre outros. No Brasil, a principal fonte de geração de energia elétrica é a hidráulica que precisa ser complementada a fim de garantir um fornecimento estável. Uma forma de energia que tem grande potencial de geração no Brasil é a e

La prise de décision en énergie repose sur des modèles complexes intégrant de nombreuses incertitudes. L'essor des énergies renouvelables (ENR) accroît cette complexité en raison de leur dépendance météorologique. Bien que l'IA améliore la prévision et l'optimisation, son manque d'interprétabilité freine son adoption. Cette recherche clarifie l'explicabilité des modèles, développe une IA symbolique pour les enchères ENR, applique des modèles à règles pour la prévision de l'adéquation réseau et utilise les cartes cognitives floues à flux d'information (IF-FCMs) pour la prévision des surcharges

Abstract:

The rural areas in the Gaza Strip suffer from the problem of sanitation and organic waste as well as electricity and cooking fuel. In this thesis, the biogas plant was designed to solve those problems based on the fixed dome plant design as shown in Figure 3 and4. Therefore, the efficiency and selectivity was good for biogas plant which is easy for the local people disposal of organic waste and wastewater as well as self-sufficiency of biogas for cooking and electricity for the family. The sediments from the biogas plant are also used as fertilizers in agriculture. Thus it is possible to know

Abstract:

A busca por novas fontes de energia e os impactos causados pelas formas tradicionais de geração elétrica têm levado a uma procura por fontes de energia mais limpas que complementem seus parques energéticos. O aumento do consumo e a crescente pressão econômica e ambiental têm justificado um planejamento mais rigoroso quanto ao uso de fontes alternativas de energia como a eólica. O Brasil apresenta um favorável cenário de recursos naturais para a instalação de usinas eólicas. No entanto, o que se observa no setor elétrico é uma tímida participação da energia eólica na matriz energética brasileir

Abstract:

Historically, it has been negative to be dependent on only one resource, in the current situation this resource represents oil. The oil dependence is primarily in the transport sector. From a Swedish perspective oil is an energy resource mainly used in the transport sector. Much of the oil that Sweden imports has its origin in the North Sea. The oil production in the North Sea has however begun to decline, which highlights that oil is a finite resource. This also means that Sweden has to start importing oil from other countries, which may affect the Swedish energy security as these countries m

Abstract:

With increasing recognition that reducing carbon emissions from energy in the UK will make a significant contribution to the mitigation of anthropogenic climate change, and with carbon budgets forged following the Climate Change Act 2005 looking unlikely to be met, it is clear that sectoral changes are required to catalyse the decarbonisation process. Alongside the need for this industry to be at the forefront of decarbonisation, the energy sector needs to diversify and employ more women, Black and Minority Ethnic (BAME), LGBT and disabled people, as well as those from different social classes

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: South Africa faces an energy crisis which presents itself in two forms; electricity generation dominated by coal fired power stations and current electricity supply capacity being unable to meet growth in demand. South Africa urgently requires new generation capacity: however, power stations take time to plan, construct and commission, meaning that South Africa has to consider other options to meet electricity demand. This necessitates quick and innovative ways of meeting future demand. Energy efficiency has been identified a
